Coffee Holding Co. (JVA) reported strong Q1 FY2025 results, with earnings increasing to $0.20 per share from $0.06 in the same period last year. The company achieved 9% revenue growth year-over-year, driven by the ongoing bull market in coffee.

The company's flagship brand Café Caribe also saw 9% growth compared to Q1 2024, gaining market share as competitors struggle with high coffee prices. The recent acquisition of Empire Coffee Company assets temporarily impacted earnings by $0.05 per share, but shows improving monthly revenue trends since November 2024.

JVA filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC for potential future capital raising, though currently has no immediate plans to utilize it. The company's hedging strategies, customer base, and strong balance sheet position it to capture new business opportunities arising from competitors' bankruptcies.

Coffee Holding Co. (JVA) ha riportato risultati solidi per il primo trimestre dell'anno fiscale 2025, con utili che sono aumentati a $0,20 per azione rispetto a $0,06 nello stesso periodo dell'anno scorso. L'azienda ha registrato una crescita dei ricavi del 9% rispetto all'anno precedente, sostenuta dal mercato rialzista del caffè.

Il marchio di punta dell'azienda, Café Caribe, ha visto anch'esso una crescita del 9% rispetto al primo trimestre del 2024, guadagnando quote di mercato mentre i concorrenti faticano con i prezzi elevati del caffè. L'acquisizione recente degli asset della Empire Coffee Company ha temporaneamente impattato gli utili di $0,05 per azione, ma mostra tendenze di crescita dei ricavi mensili in miglioramento da novembre 2024.

JVA ha presentato una dichiarazione di registrazione shelf alla SEC per un potenziale futuro aumento di capitale, anche se attualmente non ha piani immediati per utilizzarla. Le strategie di copertura dell'azienda, la base clienti e un bilancio solido la posizionano per cogliere nuove opportunità di business derivanti dai fallimenti dei concorrenti.

JVA presentó una declaración de registro shelf ante la SEC para una posible recaudación de capital futura, aunque actualmente no tiene planes inmediatos para utilizarla.

Coffee Holding Co. (JVA)는 2025 회계연도 1분기 실적이 강세를 보였으며, 주당 수익이 작년 같은 기간의 $0.06에서 $0.20로 증가했다고 보고했습니다. 회사는 커피의 지속적인 강세 시장에 힘입어 9%의 매출 성장을 달성했습니다.

회사의 주력 브랜드인 Café Caribe도 2024년 1분기 대비 9% 성장하여, 경쟁자들이 높은 커피 가격에 어려움을 겪는 가운데 시장 점유율을 확보했습니다. Empire Coffee Company 자산의 최근 인수는 주당 $0.05의 수익에 일시적인 영향을 미쳤지만, 2024년 11월 이후 매출 증가 추세가 개선되고 있습니다.

JVA는 SEC에 잠재적인 자본 조달을 위한 shelf 등록 성명을 제출했지만, 현재로서는 이를 활용할 즉각적인 계획은 없습니다. 회사의 헤지 전략, 고객 기반 및 강력한 재무 상태는 경쟁업체의 파산으로 인한 새로운 비즈니스 기회를 포착할 수 있는 위치에 있습니다.

L'entreprise a réalisé une croissance des revenus de 9% d'une année sur l'autre, soutenue par le marché haussier du café.

La marque phare de l'entreprise, Café Caribe, a également connu une croissance de 9 % par rapport au premier trimestre 2024, gagnant des parts de marché alors que les concurrents luttent avec des prix du café élevés.

JVA a déposé une déclaration d'enregistrement shelf auprès de la SEC pour un éventuel futur levée de fonds, bien qu'elle n'ait actuellement aucun plan immédiat pour l'utiliser.

Coffee Holding Co. (JVA) hat starke Ergebnisse für das erste Quartal des Geschäftsjahres 2025 berichtet, mit einem Anstieg der Gewinne auf $0,20 pro Aktie im Vergleich zu $0,06 im gleichen Zeitraum des Vorjahres. Das Unternehmen erzielte ein Umsatzwachstum von 9% im Jahresvergleich, angetrieben durch den anhaltenden Bullenmarkt im Kaffee.

Die Hauptmarke des Unternehmens, Café Caribe, verzeichnete ebenfalls ein Wachstum von 9% im Vergleich zum ersten Quartal 2024 und gewann Marktanteile, während die Wettbewerber mit hohen Kaffeepreisen zu kämpfen haben. Die kürzliche Übernahme von Vermögenswerten der Empire Coffee Company hatte vorübergehend Auswirkungen auf die Gewinne in Höhe von $0,05 pro Aktie, zeigt jedoch seit November 2024 Verbesserungen bei den monatlichen Umsatztrends.

JVA hat eine Shelf-Registrierungsanmeldung bei der SEC für mögliche zukünftige Kapitalbeschaffungen eingereicht, hat jedoch derzeit keine unmittelbaren Pläne, dies zu nutzen. Die Absicherungsstrategien des Unternehmens, die Kundenbasis und die starke Bilanz positionieren es, um neue Geschäftsmöglichkeiten zu ergreifen, die sich aus den Insolvenzen der Wettbewerber ergeben.

Insights

Coffee Holding Co's Q1 results showcase remarkable financial improvement with earnings more than tripling to $0.20 per share from $0.06 in the comparable period. The 9% revenue growth alongside identical 9% growth for their flagship Café Caribe brand indicates strong market execution during challenging industry conditions.

The company's strategic inventory positioning and derivative strategy are proving particularly effective amid the current coffee bull market. While competitors struggle with high coffee prices—leading to multiple bankruptcies across the industry—JVA's hedging approach and strong balance sheet have created a competitive advantage.

The Empire Coffee acquisition did create a $0.05 per share earnings drag this quarter, but management characterizes this as anticipated and temporary. The strategic benefits—particularly the manufacturing facility acquisition—position JVA to capitalize on competitors' misfortunes through expanded production capabilities.

The filed shelf registration statement adds financial flexibility without immediate dilution concerns. With a market cap of just $28.5M, JVA's ability to potentially use equity for acquisitions while maintaining credit facility availability represents valuable optionality in a rapidly evolving competitive landscape.

STATEN ISLAND, New York, March 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coffee Holding Co., Inc. (Nasdaq: JVA) (the “Company” or “we”) announced its operating results for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2025.

  • Earnings increased to $.20 per share this fiscal quarter compared to $.06 per share during the same period last year.
  • Our revenues also increased this quarter, growing sales by 9% compared to the same period last year.

“The bull market in coffee continues to drive both revenues and profits, as we were able to build upon the successes achieved during Fiscal 2024,” said Andrew Gordon, President and CEO of the Company.

“Our favorable inventory position combined with our derivative strategy allowed us to remain competitive to all our customers during the quarter, as price increases to our wholesale customers combined with higher green coffee prices provided us with increased profitability to our overall customer base. Sales of our flagship brand Café Caribe also grew 9% compared to first quarter of 2024, as we continue to take market share away from our competitors, as we believe customers find our brand to be more affordable in this high coffee priced environment.

It appears that the record high prices in the coffee markets continue to hurt many of our competitors, as there have been several high-profile bankruptcies announced over the past months. In addition, many of our other smaller competitors are struggling with both the high price of coffee and the volatility in the market, which prevents them from being aggressive in bidding on new business. We believe that our hedging strategies, long term loyal customers base, combined with our strong balance sheet and ample credit facility, put us in an excellent position to capture new business that is becoming available due to our competitors’ misfortunes. In addition, we recently filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC which, once declared effective by the SEC, will enable us to raise additional capital, if needed. Although we have ample room on our credit facility to tackle new opportunities which might arise, we believe the registration statement will give us additional flexibility in this current dynamic coffee market environment, as we could use our stock as currency rather than take on bank debt to finance new business opportunities. However, at the moment, we have no immediate plans or needs that would prompt us to utilize the registration statement.

Although our recent acquisition of assets from Empire Coffee Company, Inc. negatively impacted our earnings by $.05 per share during this quarter, this was not an unexpected event. We have experienced improved revenue growth on a monthly basis since our transaction closed in November 2024, and we expect this trend will continue as we bring back Empire Coffee Company’s lost customer base and grow revenues back to the levels we envisioned prior to the transaction’s close. More importantly, the acquisition of Empire Coffee Company’s first-class manufacturing facility will allow us to begin soliciting and servicing additional business opportunities which have now become available due to the previously mentioned bankruptcies within the local industry. We believe we are well-positioned to continue to grow the Company’s revenues and profits as we evaluate these new opportunities as they arise” ended Andrew Gordon.
